RetrievingInformation from Web of Science

Research Topic: Development of Novel Biosensors for Detection of Biotoxins and Biological Warfare Agents

biotoxins – neurotoxin

*toxin*

Look for different

variations of keywords

“biological sensor”

Use phrase

searching

biological warfare:

germ warfare bio-terrorism

Find the synonyms

of the keywords

biosensor OR “biological

sensor”

Use Boolean

operators

biosensor, biotoxins, biological warfare

Identify the keywords in

the topic

Construct the search statement

biosensor OR “biological sensor”

*toxin*

“biological warfare” OR “germ warfare” OR bio-terrorism

Plagiarism

Avoid Plagiarism

“In NUS, it is defined as the practice of taking someone else’s work or ideas and passing them off as one’s own.”

Source: Plagiarism | Breeze presentation by Centre for English Language Communication

“Plagiarism is a deliberate activity – the conscious copying from the work of others without acknowledgement.”

EndNote

EndNote

• Export references from database, e.g. Web of Science• Download and attach PDF documents to references• Import pdf documents with DOI to create references• Remove duplicate references

EndNote – Cite while you write

• Insert citation in MS Word • Change citation style in MS Word• Remove selected citations • Reorder selected citations

You can visit the EndNote LibGuide for more information.

Journal Citation Report (JCR)

• A comprehensive and unique resource that allows you to evaluate and compare journals

• Makes use of citation and article counts entirely from the Web of Science ® databases

Note:It would not be possible to obtain a JCR impact factor of a journal that is not covered in the Web of Science ® databases

JCR

Measures how frequently the average article in a journal has been cited in a particular year.

Journal Impact Factor

Conditions Influencing the Impact Factor

• Language of the journal

• Age of the publication

• Type and Number of “Citable” articles

• Publication schedule

Journal Immediacy Index

• Indicates how quickly articles published in a journal are cited within the same year

• Indicates the “hottest” journals that publish the latest research in the fast-moving specialties

To Find: Data to use in JCR:

Most frequently cited journals in a field Total Cites

Highest impact journals in a field Impact factor

Largest journals in a field Articles

“Hottest” journal in a field Immediacy Index
